A hidden pirate war. A broken family. A new world on the edge of collapse.
On the frontier of space, survival means choosing who you become.
When mankind first looked to the heavens, Morag was only a distant light in the sky. Generations later, it has become the gateway to a new future-and a battlefield no one saw coming.
Humanity has expanded to the dangerous moons of Morag-building domed cities, training elite Space Command forces, and pushing the limits of deep space exploration. But beneath the surface of this growing civilization, a dark threat is rising.
When a secret pirate faction infiltrates a youth scouting program, young recruits are transformed into weapons. Among them is Karren Dan-a boy searching for purpose, pulled into a deadly conspiracy that will tear his family apart.
As Space Command uncovers the truth, a desperate race begins across space stations, hostile moons, and hidden tunnels to stop a growing pirate empire. Meanwhile, Morag itself begins to reveal something even more terrifying-alien life stirring within its violent atmosphere.
Caught between duty, betrayal, and redemption, the Dan family must fight to survive as war spreads across the system.
Perfect for fans of military sci-fi, space opera, and epic interstellar adventure, this gripping novel delivers:
